Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works for the westbound M55, covering the section from White Carr Lane to Junction 3. The requirement is classified as surface work for highways and falls within the works category. Delivery locations are recorded across the United Kingdom and the named M55 route section. This is a road infrastructure requirement rather than a general construction or maintenance service, so it is most relevant to contractors able to undertake carriageway surfacing and associated highway works. The buying organisation is National Highways Limited, the public company responsible for England’s strategic road network. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that businesses of that scale were eligible to participate through the relevant purchasing route.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. National Highways Limited used a selective procedure for a call-off from a framework agreement. Bids closed at 12:00 on 17 April 2026, and the contract was awarded to Tarmac Trading Limited on 17 April 2026. The awarded value was £977,863.87 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period ran from 18 April 2026 to 30 June 2026. The award is recorded as active and the tender as complete. This was a single highway works requirement rather than a procurement divided into separately described lots. The published outcome identifies Tarmac Trading Limited as the selected supplier.

For competitors, this award demonstrates demand from National Highways for substantial, route-specific carriageway surfacing on the strategic road network. A credible supplier would need practical capability in highway surface works, the plant, workforce and operational capacity to deliver works on a live motorway route, and the systems needed to manage safety, traffic and quality requirements in a tightly controlled environment. Experience of working for a strategic highways authority or on comparable major-road schemes would strengthen a future proposition. The procurement route also matters: this requirement was placed as a framework call-off using a selective procedure, so businesses seeking similar work should understand the relevant framework market and be able to respond efficiently to call-off competitions. SME suitability indicates that smaller firms may compete where they can evidence the required delivery capability, capacity and highway experience.
